My Windows 7 key good to win 8 of the same model?

What I have to buy a completely new OS, if I'm not Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit Windows 8? It's 8 even worth the shot or stay with upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit?

The key for win8 is completely different from any win7 keys you

Installing a version of different bits to win requires a clean installation

If you want win8 you must buy it

If you have win7 64 bit unless you have a commercial version of win7 you have purchased you will have to buy it

  • I need a new key for re install on a different motherboard, which is the same model?

    I currently I have Windows 7 Home Premium OEM installed on the computer, recently built, but have had problems with it because of a faulty motherboard, so I wonder if I can re install without problems, or if I need a new key because it it a different motherboard. The motherboard is an ASUS P8Z77 - V Pro. If I do not need a new key from Microsoft will be able to provide me with one, since it's just a computer, and I'm simply by changing a defective part?

    If it's a faulty motherboard, in such circumstances, you could try phone activation whenever you use a motherboard of the same model.

  • Reinstallation of Win 7 on the same computer laptop-is the product key is still necessary?

    Dear Sirs,

    My computer dell laptop is running win7 Home premium.  I installed it a few years after purchasing a win 7 dvd.  I think reinstalling the same win 7 Home premium on the same laptop (no change in the hardware of the laptop), just to speed up my laptop and delete all unnecessary files accumulated over the years.  My question is, does the product key is necessary to put in during the re installation process or not. In other words, I have to re validate windows after installation. Of course, I have to do a custom or fees installed, so that all the old files have disappeared.

    Grateful for a quick response.

  • Windows experience index for two different laptops with the same configuration of maximum output power

    [I have two almost identical laptops Lenovo T61p and running W7 64 Ultimate b: has] has an Intel T7700 processor and 8 GB of RAM. [B] has a CPU of Intel T8300 with 4 GB of RAM. They are clocked at 2.6 GHz and have identical hard drives.

    When the system is running Windows Experience Index, it does to 2.6 GHz. It doesn't matter what is the result.

    When the system B runs the WEI, it becomes 780 MHz. In the end, he will return to run at 2.6 GHz. Needless to say that it will reduce its index to I / 2 of the other system. During any normal operation, the processor remains a 2.6 GHz

    All other values of the indices are similar and irrelevant.

    As far as I checked, the two system has the same configuration of power to maximum performance, I did not miss something. MSCONFIG are also identical.

    Any ideas about where to look to fix this behavior?

    WEI is a meaningless number that does not reflect anything in reality.  You win nothing in this hunt.  Because it is a useless number, that it has been deleted in windows 8
